Our Role as a Fiscal Sponsor
The Morgan Hill Community Foundation (MHCF) is a 501(c)3 charitable organization with a proud track record of giving that connects donors with local needs for a lasting impact on the quality of life in our community.
Funded solely through local contributions, our all-volunteer organization encourages a “Give Where You Live” philosophy through a variety of philanthropic and community investment strategies. The MHCF also plays a pivotal role in supporting the success of local groups by serving as a non-profit fiscal sponsor, making it possible for them to conduct day-to-day operations within our non-profit business platform.
What is a Non-Profit Fiscal Sponsorship?
A fiscal sponsorship is the practice of a lead non-profit providing legal and tax-exempt status to another community group that is aligned with the lead non-profit organization’s mission and focused areas of giving. This is a service the Morgan Hill Community Foundation provides to a range of partners for a nominal fee.
